Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed May 2, 1911. Serial N 0. 624,586.

To all whom 'it may concern.- -Be it known that I, CHARLES View Art- Lake and State of Utah, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brushfication.

This invention relates to improvements in so construct a brush'handle that a brush may be held at any desired angle thereon.

one handle may housed in connection with With the above and other objects in view,- I have invented the brush and handle connection illustrated in the. accompanying drawings, in which- I Figure 1 is a side elevation of a. brush having my improved handle connection thereon, Fig. 2 1s a front-elevation of the 3 is an enlarged slde elevation thereof,

of the device showing how it is operated to brush portion of the device, and Fig. 9 is a side elevation of Fig. 8. 1

Referring to the accompanying drawings I 1 is a base adapted to be screwed or other-.

wise secured to a brush 2. Centrally dis-a posed on the base 1 and integral therewith and at right angles thereto is a disk or plate .3- having a central opening 4 therein in which is a bearing 5 projecting only from the side 6 thereof. Near the periphery of and entirely around the'disk 3 is a series of holes 7.

A handle 8 has secured thereto by the screws 9 a member 10, the outer end of which terminates in or hassecured thereto which projects a shaft 14 which is adapted to be rotatably mounted in the bearing 5.

the pin-13 is the same distance from the edge of the disk 11 as are the holes 7 from the edge of the disk 3, and isadapted to fit snugly into said holes.

Pivotally mounted on the member 10 is a clamp member 15. This member isspacedz apart from the member 10 'bya Washer 16 and is bifurcated so that it may straddle the bearing 5 and is provided with atransverse.- return portion 17 which is adapted to str'addle the two disks 3 and 11 and bind -then 1 closely together, thereby holding. the

by all of said members are held rigidly connected together, the'part 15 01 thescl-amp engaging the face 6 of the disk 3 and the return part 18 engaging. the face 19 of the disk 11. The extreme ends 20 and 21 of the members 15 and 18 are slightly beveled on their inner surfaces in order that they willmore easily straddle the disks, The member 15 is provided with a finger piece 22 whereby the clamp may be easily thrown into or out of engagement with the disks.

The member 1 is fixedly secured to a brush and the member 10 is fixedly secured 1'0 a brush handle whereby the handle and brush may be easily connected or disconnected by means of the clamp 15. hen it is desired to change the angle of the brush in relation to the handle all that is necessary to be done is to. raise the clamp member and slightly separate the disks, as shown in Fig. 7, then adjust the handle to the desired angle, close the disks in upon one another, the 'pin 13 entering its opposing hole and the clamp being brought into engagement with the disks rigidly holds them in the fixed position desire V claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. In combination a brush and handle therefor, a perforated disk on said brush, a bearing on said disk, a handle having a shaft adapted to seat in said bearing, and a pin carried by said handle adapted to enter a perforation in said disk, and a clamp adapted to hold said pin in a perforation.

2. In combination a brush and a handle therefor, a perforateddisk on said brush having a bearing thereon, a handle having a shaft adapted to seat in said bearing, a.

disk on said handlefrom which said shaft projects, the disk on said handle having a pin thereon adapted to engage a perforatlon pin 13 into any one of the holes ,7,-.. where-'- Patented Nov. as, 1911.

in'said perforated disk, and a pivoted clamp 'a shaft adapted-to seat in said hearing, a

disk on said handle from which said shaftprojects, a pin on said disk adapted to enter an aperture in said'perforated disk,-a

- pivoted clamp provided with a hook having an inner inclined surface adapted to draw and hold said disks together, said clamp having a hooked end ladaptd to engage said hearing.

4. In combination a brush and handle therefor, a perforated diskon said brush having abearing thereon, a handle havinga shaft adapted to seat in said bearing, a. disk, on said handle from which said shaft projects, the disk on said handle having a pin thereon adapted to engage a poi-fora tion in saidperforated disk, a pivoted clamp adapted to draw and hold said together, and. said clamp having a hooked end adapted to engagesaid bearing 5. In combination 'a bru'sh and a handle 7 therefor, "a pefilforated disk on said brush.

having a be v a shaft adaptedto-seat-in said bearing, a

disk on said handle from which said shaft projects having a pin thereon adapted to eng thereon, a handle having ter an aperture in said perforated disk, and

a pivoted clamp provided with a hook having an inner inclined surface adapted todraw and hold saiddisks together.

6. The combination of a brush and ham" dle therefor, disks on said'handle and said":

brush, ashaft for connecting said disksand a pivoted clamp provided with a hook hav ing an inner inclined surface adapted to draw and hold said disks together.

In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
